Definantly one of the greatest homemade creations, smooth enough as if the car came that way.

I'm really glad you left the FTP's in. I usually dont like kits because they take out the FTP's. Good job on your bumper!

That is pretty much *THE* front I'd get for my FMIC install (mid-late summer target) if you added a bottom lip/splitter on it. Its superbly beautiful, goes smashingly with the stock lines, and keeps all of my favorite lights (and places for lights, natch ). Consider me another very very potential customer.

Picture jumped so far out of my screen that my Australian sheepdog pissed all over the keyboard and I am still hiding behind the refrigerator. You da Man!

It really is a professional looking piece of work. Hat is off!

After just staring at it comparing it with the border type II (what I was planning on purchasing) I REALLY like this one... but it does need a lip.

Something like Relisys190's lip... nothing TOO aggressive... its not really an aggressive bumper.. doesnt need some fancy 7" wide lip or anything... I was thinking the FEED lip... but after looking at one.. I think the holes on the sides of the lip ruin it. You got the head lights, FTPs, turing signals, Fogs, then the holses in the lip.. too many "holes" going down in a row.

-Jon

Oh... and....


BUMP!!!!!!

hey ronac, it's nice to know someone else likes the FTP lights too! I'd definitly want this bumper! I've been looking at aftermarket bumpers, and it seems all of them eliminate the FTP lights. Right now i'm trying to figure out how to turn them into relative lyhigh intensity fog lights, maybe the blue glow halogen lights. If anyone has any suggestions on how to do this let me know.

WOW, props to you my friend! that looks superb!

definitely something i would buy...it just looks like it belongs there, and i like the license plat idea, no more worries about a no front plate ticket leading to somethign else!

in my opinion you dont neep a lip it looks good as is, flows nicely with the stock lines, its PERFECT! but i DO think you should add a little black piece of rubber/plastic on the bottom like the stock bumpers, so if you do happen to scrape the ground on a driveway, it will scrape the black piece and not the bumper!

No lip, if they want a lip make that a seperate item.

Are you going to make a fiberglass or urethan version for sale???

If you can keep the cost under $400 you would make a mint (heck I'd order one today).

do the sides of the bumper fit OVER the fender? if so how is it secured onto it? and also are those turn signals the stock units? how come the turn signals arent lit up in that last picture, they should both be on... and can the turn signal unit be pulled out from the outside? how is it fit in there, with screws?
